Anyone got the new DJ Scotch Egg album yet? Sounds good to my ears - best thing he's done. A much easier listen than before, I think because the samples are generally not so harsh and tinny and there are some really cool sounds flying around. Also, it seems like there are live instruments on one or two tracks, creating a kind of breakcore/free jazz crossover.

eight years pass...

though I feel like I should be too old for this shit, getting into goreshit stuff -- circa 2009-12 adhd breakcore (aka lolicore) with anime imagery and almost industrial/noise textures. haven't heard his new stuff, but where I was thinking Machine Girl was as far as the kids were taking breakbeat and DnB, it turns out, no, this was pushed into the outer limits of taste some years ago.

ILM familiar with this stuff? as I am just now finding it, it's probably morphed into something else already

yeah, I've listened to a decent chunk of this stuff. what I've heard has been pretty inconsistent but some standouts -

dancefloor degrader is trashy happy breakcore fun w/lots of samples:

the gore with bombs split has this one really pretty melodic idm track w/squarepusher style breaks:

anyone know if this dude has more stuff like this one? I haven't found any if so. <3 this track.

the goretrance mega mixes are also kinda fun if you're in the right frame of mind, maddening if not:

ah yes, have listened to two complete goretrance mixes, and your description is right on.

"henrietta" is indeed very nice (looks like it also appears on his goresteppa LP). I listened to this track today, and while it's not pretty in the same way, it is very darkly gorgeous:
